This reel is a hard to come by collectors reel----or to use. It has never been put on a rod. However, it does look like the left side plate has been removed as the screws show wear and some of the side plate looks like it has had shelf wear. The reel works awesome! It has a push button free spool casting feature, star drag control, optional anti-reverse, and hydro thumb. Sorry, it doesn't have paperwork. Made in Fayettsville, Arkansas. Shipped by USPS Ground Advantage.
